Hrithik has done all the stunt scenes himself. Action scenes are the definitely the high point in the movie and ofcouse some exotic locations to make it a visual treat.

Here is the talk with Hrithik regarding his stunts and hard work he made for the movie..

1. Why did you decide to do Bang Bang?

I always look to do something that is challenging and Bang Bang excited me right from the word go. It is a very special film for me, in fact, it is one of best films to date. Bang Bang has everything – action, romance, music, fun, adventure. It is a total entertainer and I enjoyed everything about this movie. It has been an honour to work with Siddharth Anand who has made this incredible movie and Katrina Kaif who I think is one of the most professional actors that I have worked with. Her dedication is unparalleled and that is why she is where she is today.

2. You have done some death-defying stunts in the film. Why take the risk?

I love the adrenaline rush. I’m an extreme guy and I love doing the action myself. It gives me a high. I have never shot such action sequences in my life – it is definitely a first in Bollywood and I thoroughly enjoyed doing them. We had an incredible crew who took care of me when I was jumping of rooftops or driving a bike or the F1 car and water skiing while attached to a sea-plane or doing the incredible stunt with the fly board that people are really loving. I mean I had a great time doing these extreme action stunts. The risk involved is the high but when you have a team that looks after you and makes sure that you are safe, there is nothing to worry. I trusted them with my eyes closed.

3. You said Bang Bang has everything but how would you describe the movie?

Bang Bang has everything for everyone. It is a masala movie, a complete family entertainer. I know people are calling it an action film but to me it’s a romantic film at it’s core. Yes, there is action and incredible never-seen-before action but it revolves around a simple, beautiful love story between my character and Katrina’s. That’s the differentiator of the film. I loved the film when I read it and it was the love story in the middle of the thrill and action that attracted me a lot.

Yes, the reaction to the song has been incredible and I thank everyone for the love that they have showered on me and Bang Bang. When Sid first told me about the concept, I wasn’t sure as no one can do what MJ did. But then I thought MJ was an inspiration to me and now that I’m getting a chance to give a tribute to him why should I not. I have given the God of dancing my humble tribute in my own style. I’m very happy that people are liking that. I have not tried to copy because you can’t copy MJ so I danced his moves in my own way and I had a blast. I love the title track. It’s subtle and a really cool dance number. And I danced with all my heart and so did Katrina. She is an outstanding dancer and we had a great time dancing to this song.

5. Your chemistry with Katrina is being talked about a lot. Katrina and you team up after the successful Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. How was it working with her?

I’m really happy that our pairing has been accepted by the audiences and that they are liking what we have done in Bang Bang. It was great working with her as usual. She is a fantastic co-worker. She is extremely professional, very hard-working and has great work ethics. If you see her career graph, these are the values that has made her one the most successful actors that she is today. Katrina is fun to work with and I hope people love the work that we have done in Bang Bang.

KATRINA role in Bang Bang:

Katrina Kaif plays that character of Harleen – a bank receptionist, who is taken on a whirlwind time of her life in Bang Bang.

Siddharth Anand’s Bang Bang will see Katrina Kaif in every possible avatar. From a girl-next-door to a super sexy girl romancing her co-star Hrithik Roshan to an action girl pulling off some incredible stunts on her own.

Director Siddharth Anand says, “Bang Bang is without doubt Katrina’s BEST role till date! The entire film is the journey of Harleen, the character she is playing. It’s so refreshing to see Katrina play a part like that. Katrina and me had been talking about working together for the last 6 years and finally that took form in Bang Bang.”

He adds, “It’s very rare in an action film to have equal parts of the hero and heroine. In that aspect, Bang Bang stands apart. So it was equally important to cast someone who stands tall with Hrithik Roshan. And we found the Perfect fit in Katrina!”

Talking about her character, Katrina Kaif says, “Harleen is a simple girl living her simple life before she gets completely embroiled in Rajveer’s (Hrithik) life and ends up becoming the exact opposite of what she was! Harleen’s journey is very exciting and I hope everyone joins us on this rollercoaster fun, action, romance extravaganza!”
